I Classici dell'Avventura was published monthly by Fratelli Spada from 1962 to 1967.

History

The issues have a cartridge on the upper left mentioning the title I Classici dell'Avventura, the format size of 15 x 21 cm for most of them, and 100 pages each one. It was launched immediately after the La Freccia's similar series ended.

This series alternated between the adventures of Mandrake (uneven issue numbers) and L'Uomo Mascherato (even issue numbers) with a total of 134 issues, of which 67 issues were devoted to Mandrake stories. The first issue dedicated to Mandrake was issue #1 (January 10, 1962) and the last one was issue 133 (January 29, 1967). Some issues (#13, 15 and 25) have a bigger size of 17 × 24 cm and the subtitle Gigante.

Each issue included several Mandrake stories, until issue #61 in April 1964, from which only one Mandrake story was featured along with two other comics such as "Tim Tyler's Luck", "Secret Agent X-9", "King of the Royal Mounted" and so on.

The covers were made by: Enzo Carretti, D Mirabella, G Ferri, Tullo Palasciano, Enzo Ciacci and M Caria.

In France, a similar series called Les héros du mystère roughly corresponded to the Mandrake issues from Fratelli Spada's I Classici dell'Avventura.
